Where Would YOU like MJ to be buried....

Neverland and it has to remain a private property not turn it into a circus the way Priscilla did with Graceland
Michael needs his peace once and for all...they could allow visitors a few times a year the way they do with princess Diana's grave but that's it
and I hope Neverland will go to his kids I'm sick of money-hungry leeches
 
I really don't want him to be buried at Neverland. When I first heard it it turned my stomach and made me cry out "NO!! NO!! PLEASE NO!!!". Neverland was Michael's "haven" in the past...but after the trial he said he doesn't want to go back and never went back. It would not feel right to bury him there. I do not think he would have wanted to be buried there.

I've been thinking about the burial a lot and I am between two choices. A beautiful place somewhere other than Neverland...known to public, so that fans can visit. However, on the other hand Michael was harrassed so much during his lifetime in a way it feels like he would deserve to be able to "rest in peace" now. So in a way I feel like a private place for his final resting place would be nice. Somewhere away from the public, so that he can't be "harrassed" anymore. Also that way his children and his family could visit his grave in peace. And they could put a "memorial stone" to Neverland...some kind of place there, where fans could pay their respects and that would serve the purpouse of a "grave", even when his remains won't be there. Then on the other hand I think Michael would have wanted to still be "close to fans" too...and maybe would have wanted fans coming to his grave...so maybe the private option wouldn't have been what he wanted. So those are the two options that I would consider. But Neverland would get an absolute "no" from me. It feels it would be more like an "eternal punishment" and the "ultimate revenge" to make him rest there. I would feel awful if he was buried there. It would not be right.

I think you are right, a memorial at Neverland and his grave elsewhere so idiots don't try to vandalise it.
 
I would say Neverland ONLY if that is where insiders know that's where Michael trully loved and would want to be. I know he has said that he would never return there bc it wasn't a "home" anymore, but he did hold onto Neverland something fierce so I am left to wonder if he did have hopes of it someday being his Graceland.

If not Neverland, than I think that he should be laid to rest in Gary, Indiana as so many stars are to give back to their humble beginnings. This would bring so much back to this declining City and the State of Indiana altogether, as he is our favorite son.
 
I definately think Neverland should be reopened as a public tourist memorial site for Michael Jackson, especially performing acts of kindness for underpriveldged and disabled youth as MJ envisioned. I feel strongly about that whether he is buried there or not. Maybe Neverland become that and lay him to rest in Indiana.
 
I've been saying Neverland from the day the news came.
I'd love it when they would restore it like it once was I'd really like to visite the place someday.
And I think it's the savest place.

The giving tree idea is very nice!!
 
The only place that is fitting for Michael to be buried is Neverland. He still loved the place, why else would he try to keep it?

Don't forget, what ever money is made by Michael's estate inevitably goes to his children and some charities. There is nothing wrong with building his estates wealth. That's why Michael left a Family Trust and executors to his Will, so that intelligent business deals would be made on his behalf for his loved ones. Stop complaining about people making money. That's what Michael did for a living and this is the planning of preserving his legacy. I know there are some greedy people who will jump on the bandwagon, but that's part of the business of life. Neverland is an important monument in MJ's legend, it should be preserved and shared the way he wanted initially.
 
I dont really know..
Just hope it isn't Neverland. Michael really didn't want to return to that place, it wasnt his home anymore and it has some pretty bad memories, which even might overshadow all of the good things.

And what if his children would like to visit his grave? I mean, if the thing is going to be this sort of Graceland, they cant really do that with privacy. I mean, I would hate to see, that the kids need to stand in line to visit their dad.
 
if he hated it so much then why didn't he let go of it completely when he had the chance?
and no I don't want it to turn into a second Graceland I don't care what people say this is MY opinion I'm allowed to have one

I doubt this would happen if Neverland was indeed chosen. lol
 
I have thought that if it couldn't be Neverland, Gary, Indiana is a possibility but hard for his kids to visit, but lately I have thought that Las Vegas could be a possibility. He liked it there, some family is there. There was something on TV where he was going to have a house & call it Wonderland. Fans could visit, I think they would want to, proceeds could go to the kids.

I wouldnt want him to go to Neverland personally I think that is going against Michaels wishes never to be returned.
Id like to think a place like where Princess Di was buried - somewhere only his family and close friends would no and could get to.

If they do go ahead with neverland though I hope its on a island in the middle of a lake, where he can be in peace, Michael deserves peace whereever he goes.

Totally agree with you on both points.I would hate to see Michaels resting place with crowds of people and media all over it.It would be much better if he were buried like Princess Diana so that you could go and remember him but not invade his space.
That is what I would like to see happen :)
 
Wherever his family thinks is appropriate. In the end of the day they know best.
 
:angel: Neverland has always been my first choice and under his giving tree. I think that would be perfect as long as it is done with class and with dignity. I think Michael really loved Neverland and that is why he never really let it go. I think he was just waiting to heal from the pain of the intrusion and his financial troubles so he could restore it. I would rather it not be opened back up with the rides and animals though, that would just bring about the circus atmosphere that Graceland has and we don't want that. I also think he was just referring to the house when he said he didn't want to live there anymore. He said it was now a house and not a home. I think he would be happy to be burried there as it was a place he loved for a long time and somehow just couldn't bear to part with it. This way he can have it forever.:)

I was about to say under his favourite try in Neverland :)
 
How can it be that it's been excactly one month and he still isn't buried? :( It's like he can't rest until he is buried, but for me, in some sick way maybe, thinking about the fact that he is not yet buried is a way of hanging on like he is still here on the surface of the earth with us! :( Like it's still not completely over, he is still here! Am I sick for thinking like that? :(
 
Just this very second had a thought...........of where Michael could be finally laid to rest........
Greenwich Park, Greenwich, London UK.
It is a beautiful royal park, fit for a king.................our Michael King of pop.

Michael announced his ''this is it, the final curtain call'' in Greenwich at the O2 :-(
He planned his come back tour for there, so why shouldnt he be laid to rest there?

I grew up going to this park as a kid as lived in Blackheath London UK, and lived there as an adult until 2006.

almost opposite the O2...........hope Jermaine gets to read this............ but it would be so far from the USA.

Just a thought.

I see your point but Michael didn't live his whole life in London, he was about more than doing the O2.

Anderson Cooper talked about this tonight and took us on a tour of the house Michael was planning to buy after the concerts:

I agree with the majority,

Given we dont have much of a choice, I beleive neverland is the only choice

They need to recreate the place, put everythng of his back the animals etc, create a museum and either open it to the public or open it for days out for under priviledged children just as mike would wish.

But in reality could you imagine hm anywhere else, in fact i would go as far to say he needs to be buried right by his giving tree because he sought tranquility there and he was more giving than anyone.

Same thing here and I do have a feeling that the family will make sure to bring back Neverland the way it was in Michael’s happy days.

BTW- I like your signature and I can even read it in my own language, cool! :)
 
Well i can't see Michael rest anywhere else than Neverland and here is the reason:

Neverland is Michael's creation, and the only reason he didn't wanna go back, was because the SAPD succeed to drag Michael out of Neverland by completely trashing his house. despite of that Michael still kept Neverland, and he also stated that he would never ever sell Neverland completely. If i was a member of the jackson family, i would even move to Neverland with Michael resting there, and feel his spirit everywhere. And i wouldn't allow anyone to enter like Graceland. Neverland is not a museum, but again of course it would be nice of them if they did, so fans could pay their visit one last time or more all the time.
